Missouri Colleges and Universities

I am looking at Northwest Missouri State because it is the only university in Missouri that I can find that offers classes in this field, I would like to be able to pick from a list of colleges rather than just one. I understand that Missouri probably doesn't have as many schools for this as California or Maine so if anyone finds good out-of-state schools for me (that are at an affordable cost) I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks guys!

Here's the thing about marine bio - it's not a great major if you want to go to graduate school for marine bio (bio is better), you will need a graduate degree to do much of anything in the field, and the schools that offer marine bio as a major aren't very good. You'd be better off majoring in bio at the best school you can get into and then going to grad school. And read the website below.

I was wondering what colleges in Missouri are good to apply for. Im very average when it comes to GPA and ACT scores and im planning on boarding somewhere. Im looking into Physical or Occupational Therapy. Any ideas are very very appreciated!

I'm not in Missouri so I don't know of many. I know that Truman State University is a very nice school. Search here and see if it can help you find a school that fits what you want

I will be a senior this year in high school. I would like to find a good college in Missouri that offer a Chinese language program. I want to continue learning Chinese after high school because I want to become a Chinese language interpreter and later on a Chinese teacher. I want to find a nice College that will offer an exchange program so I can go over to China/ Taiwan to study. So can anyone recommend any colleges?

Check out Washington University in St. Louis. They offer both undergraduate and graduate level courses/degrees in Chinese.

Also look into their overseas program

Does anyone know of any colleges in missouri to become a pediatrician?? If so can you please give me the links.

Thanks to everyone that answers in advance, I really appreciate it!

First you have to attend a four year school, then you have to go to medical school. This should take up about eight years of your time. After medical school, you go to a school that lets you study pediatric medicine. I think that is another three or four years. Finding this pediatric school right now is premature. Finish the first 8 years first, then you will know where you need to go.

Or any other colleges close to missouri.

Here is the link to MO colleges that accept the A+ program:

I want to become a scientist (such as a chemist) and I'm looking for colleges/universities in Missouri. If you can find any close to Columbia or St. Louis, please please please let me know. If you know of any websites where I may find lists of colleges/universites for science, that would be very helpful, too. Thank you so much!!! :)

Washington University in St. Louis. Famous for its med school (great chemistry). SLU is good too. In general, your guidance counselor is a good resource, as are college guides (Princeton Review, Fiske).

i've been out of high school for a while and my high school g.p.a was low 2.0 or less. i never took the acts. any advice?
hi i had a 2.08 in high school and my class rank was low 389 out of 463.

Lindenwood in St. Charles and Central Methodist (somewhere in the middle of the state) are known to accept more marginal students (for lack of a better way to say it). You may also look at Culver-Stockton or Hannibal La-Grange.

Good luck

I'm 16, a sophomore in highschool, and very interested in going into a career that has to do with Missouri wildlife conservation, or something very similiar. Need to know which colleges would be good in Missouri for this kind of future. I've also been looking into volunteering in Watkins mill state park. Does anyone have experience working/ volunteering in areas that have something to do with Missouri wildlife conservation? Any tips/ advice would be greatly appreciated.

NW Missouri State in Maryville and Mizzou in Columbia as well as the schools in Joplin and in Springfield all have Wildlife/Forestry programs.

If somebody knows the best college ( Beautiful where is nice to be at, and cheap tuition) in Missouri or Tennessee let me know. Thanks.

UMSL (University of Missouri St. Louis) is okay. University of Missouri Columbia is really good! it is a major party school though, but they are known for their journalism and business school there. Those are pretty much the cheapest ones that I know of. St. Louis is huge on private universities and most of them cost around 20 grand.. so yeah! you might want to look into those two state schools. Columbia is a much nicer campus than UMSL I would say, but keep in mind lots of partying!
